Ladies day at Killarney proves a day to remember

Two ladies dominated day two in Killarney, Maxine O’Sullivan ensuring a day to remember for her family when winning aboard Citizen Al before doubling up in the bumper, aboard the gambled-on Raya Time, and Rachael Blackmore also completing a brace, aboard Icantsay and Benkei.

O’Sullivan claimed the first leg of her double when getting a great tune out of her father Eugene’s Citizen Al in the M D O’Shea & Sons Mares’ Maiden Hurdle.

Sapphire Lady led most of the way and traded at 1.01 in running, but she made a bad mistake at the last and was soon collared by Citizen Al.
